I just finished a tour of Bonsai Gardens in the Northeast, with a couple of friends from Japan. We visited The International Bonsai Arboretum, New England Bonsai, Royal Bonsai Gardens, Bonsai West, Rosade Bonsai Studio, a lecture and Demo with David Easterbrook, The Kennett Collection, and Nature's Way. It was quite a week! You can see some photos and a travelogue of trip on my website and blog, part 2 goes up tomorrow!Ryanhttp://japanesebonsaipots.net/

That was great Ryan, as its all the locals for myself as well. A real Treat to see Harvey's trees included also. Though I'm fairly certain the Beech forests you saw at Bills were F. Sylvatica not F. Grandifolia.

Thank you for all the photo's I bookmarked your blog and will no doubt revisit these again! What a great time of year to do a Bonsai 'crawl'
